phone to a Bluetooth™ handsfree or a Bluetooth™ car kit and use these devices to
make and receive calls.
Once you have paired your phone with a Bluetooth™ device the phone will remember
this pairing. When pairing the phone with a Bluetooth™ device, you may need to enter
a passcode. Your phone will automatically try the generic passcode 0000. If this does
not work, refer to your Bluetooth™ device documentation for the device passcode.

Bluetooth™ device.
